| Some Adjustments for Bash, to provide an improved behaviour.
Bash is a very nice shell. Unfortunately, it needs some tuning. At least in our case, it is more useful with some adjustments.
To get an overview of all features, you should check the script itself. It has a ton of comments in it. Some of the improvements are:
- Enhance tab completion in many ways
- Tune the behaviour of history appendings
- Enable colors for common commands
- Add some aliases for common commands
The script is tested under:
- RedHat 7.x
- CentOS 7.x
- Fedora 25+
- SLES 12+
- Arch Linux 2018+
- Debian 9.1+
- You have to use bash
- The adjustments can work as a stand-alone, but you should consider to have a look at the bash-rpompt.
You can run the installer as root for global installation or as a user for installation in your home directory.
- Please Download the release package from https://github.com/while-true-do/bash-behaviour/releases
- Unpack it via
unzip - Make the installer executable
chmod +x install.sh - Run the installer
./install.sh
For CentOS, there is a role you can use for the installation.
Currently the script is tested manually via shellcheck. An automation is not present.
Thank you so much for considering to contribute. Every contribution helps us. We are really happy, when somebody is joining the hard work. Please have a look at the links first.
